"That won't do. If a major mass incident occurs, won't we be the ones cleaning up the mess in the end?"

"Then let Anxin go, he's free lately anyway."

An Changlin made a timely recommendation.

An Xin has been suspended from duty for so long and has no cases on his hands, which makes An Changlin very anxious.

"Alright, let him handle it, but you should remind him not to be so reckless this time." Meng Dehai glanced at him, understood what his old comrade meant, and nodded.

Most of the people in Mang Village are not to be trifled with. They all belong to the large Li clan, and their folk customs are fierce. The villagers are also very united. Sometimes, even when the police come to arrest people, it is not effective. Only the village chief, Li Youtian, is the local tyrant.

Li Youtian declared that he would not stop until he had subdued all the firefighters in one fell swoop!

An Xin was quite experienced in handling such stability maintenance incidents. After the Santana police car arrived at the fire station, he got out, first calmed the villagers down, and then asked them what their demands were.

"Immediately lift the seizure order on our Mangcun soap factory!"

"Our fire-fighting equipment is approved, and that guy surnamed Xiao must come out and apologize!"

"Yes, otherwise, I'll make sure he can't even go home!"

“This beast is cutting off our livelihood. He sits in his office swaggering around. Doesn’t he have parents, a wife, and children?”

The villagers of Mangcun shouted angrily.

"Alright, everyone's demands are valid, and I've noted them down. Don't worry, I'll go in and talk to Director Xiao now, and I promise to give everyone a satisfactory answer. So, before I come out, I hope everyone will refrain from acting impulsively!"

An Xin held the notebook and said.

Upon hearing this, the villagers quieted down and waited patiently at the door.

An Xin led two team members into the fire station, followed by Zhang Biao.

As they walked, An Xin complained, "Is the fire department just bored? Jinghai uses the same fire-fighting equipment used in Mangcun, and it meets all the standards. Why is they bothering them? They just cause us trouble."

"It must be a task given by higher-ups, otherwise how would he have the guts? Hmph, this matter is not easy to handle," Zhang Biao sneered.

"Task?"

An Xin frowned, then realized something and suddenly felt that it was a bit tricky.

In the director's office, An Xin met Director Xiao, who was at a loss for what to do.

Upon seeing the police arrive, Director Xiao immediately said, "Oh, it's great that you're here. How is it? Have all the villagers been driven away?"

An Xin said, "Director Xiao, how can we kick people out when the problem isn't solved? The one who tied the knot must untie it. Since the fire equipment in Mang Village is an approved and qualified product, your fire department shouldn't have sealed it off anymore. Why don't you go out and explain to everyone that it was a mistake by a temporary worker, apologize, and take the seal back?"

Upon hearing this, Director Xiao's face immediately darkened. He said, "How can this be allowed? The issue of fire-fighting equipment in Mang Village is governed by a document from higher authorities. We are simply acting in accordance with the law. Now that the police are here, we can't let these troublemakers do this. If we open this door, our fire-fighting work will be impossible to continue."

"Then we'll have a difficult time."

An Xin was also unhappy.

Director Xiao is clearly trying to shift the blame onto the police, since the Jinghai Public Security Bureau will be held responsible for any mass incidents that occur.

"This is the kind of thing that requires the police to step in and drive those troublemakers away!" Director Xiao hinted.

An Xin said unhappily, "If we don't address the root of the problem, even if we drive these villagers away today, they'll just come back tomorrow. With so many cases in Jinghai, aren't you just wasting police resources?"

"Hmph, you little comrade, you really don't know how to handle things. Why would Old Meng send a greenhorn like you?"

Feeling humiliated by An Xin's criticism, Director Xiao angrily grabbed his briefcase and left the office.

He had already told the driver to move the car to the back, preparing to sneak away.

An Xin chased after him and grabbed Director Xiao, saying, "Director Xiao, you can't leave. So many villagers are waiting for your answer."

Director Xiao was furious. "What are you doing? Let go! This is outrageous! You're police officers, are you afraid of a bunch of troublemakers? You have to handle this, otherwise what are you even here for?"

"The matter certainly needs to be resolved, but it requires Director Xiao's personal involvement."

An Xin was also furious. This whole thing was originally caused by the fire department's despicable behavior, and now that something went wrong, they're just trying to pin the blame on him and run away.

Thinking of the promise he made to the villagers, An Xin gritted his teeth and pulled Director Xiao to the door.

"Hello everyone, please be quiet. This is Director Xiao from our fire department. If you have any issues or complaints, you can communicate with Director Xiao, and we will try our best... Hey, what are you all doing?"

Before An Xin could finish speaking, the villagers of Mang Village rushed forward.

Rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves, which had been prepared beforehand, were thrown wildly at Director Xiao's head and face.

Director Xiao tried desperately to dodge, but he was still hit all over the face, and the foul-smelling egg liquid dripped down his slicked-back hair and onto his lips.

He glared angrily at An Xin and said, "An Xin, right? I've memorized your badge number. Just wait until I file a complaint against you!"

This scene was unexpected for An Xin. He didn't expect the villagers of Mang Village to be so furious. Fortunately, Zhang Biao fired a warning shot, and the villagers stopped.

The farce ended with Director Xiao humiliatedly hiding in his car.

Back at the bureau, An Xin was immediately summoned to the office and severely criticized by Meng Dehai.

"You can't even handle something this simple, and you almost made it escalate. Is this your first time dealing with a mass incident?" Meng Dehai slammed his fist on the table and scolded.

An Xin stiffened his neck, his face full of anger, and remained silent.

An Changlin said from the side, "Forget it, forget it. This is clearly just that bastard Lao Xiao trying to shift the blame. Besides, those villagers in Mang Village are too lawless. They even dared to lay a hand on the police in front of them. Lao Meng, I think you should call the fire department. If they can't handle this properly, we're not going to bother with this mess anymore."

"That's all we can do," Meng Dehai sighed.

...

At Wan Zi Qian Hong KTV, Tang Ping sat in his office and finally met Sister Xia.

She was indeed born with a seductive charm, exuding the allure of a mature young woman; no wonder even Hu Xiandong couldn't resist her.

After a brief introduction, Tang Ping smiled and said, "I heard about what happened last time. Xian Dong was safe thanks to Sister Xia's help. Hehe, the reason I asked you to come here is actually to ask you to do something for me. I'm thinking of starting a film and entertainment company, and you could help me discover some promising artists, what do you think?"

Sister Xia hesitated and said, "Boss, I'm not very familiar with this. I'm afraid I won't do it well."
